I had the privilege of working with Super Lawyer Eric Hackweilder, a former district attorney who came highly recommended to me by the former Police Chief. The Chief assured me that Eric is one of the best lawyers available and described him as highly proficient, respected, confident, and always prepared for battle. From the outset, Eric believed in my innocence and worked tirelessly to collect evidence to support my claim. His exceptional ability to navigate complex issues gave me the confidence that he would achieve the desired outcome. His skillful handling of the matter is a testament to his expertise in the field and his unwavering commitment to defending his clients. In addition, I would like to acknowledge the PSP trooper who booked me. I have high regard for his professionalism and integrity. He walked into the District Judge's office, requested to speak to my attorney, and stated that I was innocent and had made a mistake in booking me. He demonstrated great character by doing the right thing, knowing he would enter the ring with a skilled and prepared lawyer.
